buffyann:oh the look on merlin's face
obsessive24:shit this is making me sad
obsessive24:blue
kiki_miserychic:they break. love the use of the hands and how they deflate.
obsessive24:of awesome
kiki_miserychic:wow
obsessive24:wow that made my heart hurt
buffyann:I was lost content wise, but that's always the case in the first watch
kiki_miserychic:love the instrumental use
buffyann:that was very subtle, editing wise, I agree
obsessive24:I need to rewatch, but I'm getting a vibe of this being a grown up version of Unsteady Ground
buffyann:the use of instrumental is really interesting here
obsessive24:bold move, worked very well, methinks
kiki_miserychic:i think lyrics wouldn't have worked for what she wanted to create
obsessive24:agreed
kiki_miserychic:would have clogged it up with words
obsessive24:nicely put
kiki_miserychic:more about atmosphere and feeling than about what the words mean
buffyann:yes, I love instrumental for that
buffyann:lyrics are another layer of interpretation
buffyann:without them, it makes the images more raw and the music is just guiding the feelings, I don't know
kiki_miserychic:maybe she thought people trying to "get"the lyrics would have muddled it.
kiki_miserychic:or maybe the song just felt perfect to her and i'm reading in too much
obsessive24:she didn't need it to make the point, which is what matters
buffyann:yes
